max22 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 My budget is around $950 to $110. Looking for the best parts for a new pc to build please? I want to go Nvidia with video card I know that. Plus Windows 7 not Windows 8.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon H Supervisor Posted July 23, 2014 Supervisor Share Posted July 23, 2014 what's your preference for cpu? AMD or Intel also, do you need/want a cd drive? how about wireless? shouldn't be too hard picking you out some good parts for that price range once i know a little more what you're wanting out of the build :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mindovermaster Moderator Posted July 24, 2014 Moderator Share Posted July 24, 2014 Why not just get a 2x4Gb pack? Its actually less than buying 4. Add a SSD in there too, while you're at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FiB3R Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 What I like to do is, go to somewhere like http://3xs.scan.co.uk Check out the components they have used for their systems, and then go searching to see if I can get the parts cheaper elsewhere, and build it myself.tbh, it has been a pretty small difference a lot of the time, like ?50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max22 Posted July 25, 2014 Author Share Posted July 25, 2014 Thanks again got my new gaming pc up and running today! I went with 16 GB of ram because I like using photoshop lightly and having a lot of programs open. Brandon H 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
